Sunny Clementine

I know a little crazy 3 posts in one day. I was behind on getting pictures done. It is dark too early and I was just not getting those things done on the weekend. Everyone was home and since we were outside shoveling the 8.5 inches of snow twice. I had help from the hubby and I thought they looked pretty with the new snow.

This quilt was part of the MMQG challenge. It was at the LGS for the voting portion and no I didn't win but it was fun to enter and figure out what to do. I am gifting this quilt along with a pillow for a Christmas - birthday gift for my best friend. We have been friends for over 30 years and she has never gotten a quilt from me. Her boys have and I have made other gifts but not a quilt so it's time. Her favorite color is orange.

I quilted it on the diagonal and just followed the grid. This color looks so much brighter than it really is. This should look great in her 3 season room with very earthy colors. I blogged about here and here. Here's the pillow I made as well, it was the tutorial from In Color Order.

I had also made a pillow for myself with the Boo Crew. I had wanted to try a Granny Square so I did! It turned out very cute.

I don't think you will see another finish post today! Enjoy your Sunday and hope you are finding some time to sew!
